Division VII THE ABDOMEN Although it is difficult to obtain satisfactory Roentgenographsof the abdominal organs, yet great advances have been made byusing new methods. A striking illustration of this is shown in Plates137 and 138. These Roentgenographs were taken by Dr. Percy Brown toshow the greater accuracy of outline obtained by a short exposure,Plate 137, seven seconds, the child not breathing, over Plate 138,a longer one, thirteen seconds, taken during normal respiration. Thechild had been given a large dose of bismuth and in this way theresulting great density was obtained. The plates illustrate howthe comparatively clean-cut edge of the stomach shown in the shortexposure is contrasted with the blurred outline of the long are a number of congenital malformations of the intestine,represented by obliteration of the intestine from various causes, suchas fibrous bands, yet it is rare that we can show these conditions byRoentgenographs.
